It is raining again and I am going to Lexington to see "The Revenant" this afternoon. Thought I would pick something to carry that is appropriate for the time period:

The only things on the agenda today are music, Bladeforums and some much needed rest and relaxation.
I couldn't ask for a better day.

Thanks, Ron. What's the meaning of the highlighted statement? You're just full of intrigue! Is that a Hayin' Helper? VERY appealing knife! :thumbup:

I didn't know that, excellentHope you enjoy the film, I'm hoping to get along to see it next week. That is a great choice for the occasion :thumbup:
That is a museum-quality piece, made even more impressive and notable as a knife made in the USA on the centennial by a company that was truly cross-Atlantic in its heritage. For anyone who hasn't had the opportunity to read Primble's excellent aggregation detailing the maker's history, you can read it here.
I'll second that! :thumbup: As a Barlow fan first and foremost I think I may have just seen a glimpse of Heaven.![]()
Primble - Watch out for them slick roads! 1876, man that is a fantastic Barlow my friend
In anticipation of things to come, 47 Northfield Viper with Che Chen Rosewood covers is in the pocket today.I can hardly wait to get that Tidioute East Indian Rosewood in hand!

Glad it arrived Mike!! Do you have a pic looking straight down to see the blades tucked together??
Wanna know why the old knives are better? At about a hundred years a piece this was doin' it old school and that's why after all that time these two are as good as the day they were new. So today I'm goin' old school and carryin' both.
Top left 1920s Graef & Schmidt Jack Knife in smooth bone covers, bottom right 1911-1913 Union Knifeworks NYC very rare as the company only existed for two years but in that two years they made a premium knife to rival the best out there.
